                                of the pop3uidl file. Close your internet connection 
                                and all programs. Search for the file pop3uidl 
                                and delete it. Reconnect and it should work.

                                you check your mail again. 
                               You may have a corrupt or a very 
                                large file attachment on the mailserver. Large

                                or mail that do not conform to the mail RFC's 
                                can cause this.

                                Also set up a different identity and see if OE
